Just pay Autobahnstormers £25 and be done with it ::)

That way you can use their trade club card :y

Alternatively ask the dealer for a discount, even 10% is better than a knick in the knackers with a sharp boot...

As the guide in FAQ, you can apply to trade club direct.

Or pay £20 to Autobahstormers car club. They send you a card that is accepted by trade club.

To get a tc price they will ask what company (or club ;) ) and see if its registered. Of there's a registered member near by that can help you, all the merrier.

Well, you'll get 20 litres for less than that on tc.

I know you don't need 20litre right now, but in 5 to 10k miles, you will and the oil will be in the garage waiting. Get 3 filters while your there btw. ;)

Just by asking what the best current oil offer is :y

Typically £50-55+ vat for 5w30... sometime VX, sometimes Chevrolet, sometimes 4x5l at buy 3 get one free, sometimes 20l drum. 10w40 typically 20% cheaper :y
